Reviews

[Karl · Rating 4 out of 5]

The book "Shawcross Corner" is presented as a diary or first person memoir of serial killer/ cannibal Arthur Shawcross. The story is brutal, violent and violating. One comment made by Shawcross is "meat is meat".

Jordan Krall captures the crazy mind and sad life of a demented individual.

[Michael Adams · Rating 4 out of 5]

The first entry in a series examine serial murderers in a faux-confessional style. I found this to be disturbing, somewhat disgusting in places, but ultimately it just left me feeling somewhat sad. This is the journal of a sad, broken human being; sexually, emotionally, and physically abused in childhood, who has turned his hate and hurt outward on the world. A book probably not for everyone, but readers interested in psychological horror and the phenomenon of why men become murderers will find interest in this volume.
